Nebraska now offering online renewal for driver licenses

Gov. Dave Heineman announced that Nebraskans can now renew their driver license online through the Nebraska Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV).

Nebraskans are eligible to renew their driver license, motorcycle license or state ID card once every other renewal cycle, or every 10 years, meeting certain requirements. The online service can also be used to purchase duplicate or replacement licenses and state ID cards.

“We are dedicated to utilizing technology, Gov. Heineman said. “This is an important step in providing more efficient, faster services that benefit Nebraskans.”

New cards are mailed to a user’s home address between a week and 20 days. To be eligible for online renewal Nebraskans must be over 21 and must use the same name and address listed on their current license or ID card. Physical descriptions must also remain the same.
